Carla Bley - Caucasian Bird Riffles

Текст песни

Knowledge is what
Shakes its fears
In lacking
All experience of them
By words of mouth knowledge
Is what shakes its fear
In lacking all knowledge
Of them
Nothing lurking
Which isn’t genuine
Windows blackened
Bylaws of eyes
The feat incomplete
Hunger alone
Left as unfit
To eat
What is it to stand
So innocently
Offering you back your seat?
Lurking Caucasian
Bird riffles
Lurking Caucasian
Bird riffles
A sullenness
Not as simple
As expression
This sullenness in us
Awaiting the disillusionment
We know
To reduce distortion
That still shocks so
The sullenness of families
Of compromise
In claims
Of wealthy histories
Or in a stray uncle
Signatory
To the sanitary napkins act
Maturity
A sulking loss
Of reality
